since the 2001-02 season when he was traded from Indiana on February 19, 2002.

The Michigan product was selected by the Denver Nuggets in the first round

where he was with the Pacers for five-plus seasons. In 687 career games, Rose
has averaged 14.4 points, 4.1 assists and 3.6 rebounds per contest.

of a November 8 game against New Orleans by former head coach Bill
Cartwright.

6.2 rebounds this season for Chicago. The Connecticut product is playing for

pick in the 1996 draft.

The 35-year-old Davis was first drafted by Indiana in 1990, but did not play
until the 1993-94 campaign. Davis spent six years with the Pacers before he
was shipped to Toronto, where he has been since 1999-2000. For his career,
Davis has posted 10.7 points and 7.7 rebounds per game.
